"Johnny and his team were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. As first time homebuilders we had no experience and lots of questions. Johnny handled every detail, helping us to create the space that we wanted. He and his team are thoughtful, innovative and very efficient. Our requests were always met with a "can do" attitude. We were rewarded with the house that is exactly as we imagined. We highly recommend CB Builders." -Homeowner, Hidden River Ranch

"After interviewing several builders who had been recommended to us by our architect and others in town, we selected Johnny Biggers and Crested Butte Builders to build our new house in Crested Butte. Not only did we like his approach to the project, we knew from our first meeting with Johnny that we could work well together. As second home owners, we were not able to be on site during the process, and the communication was excellent. The quality, finish, and craftsmanship was excellent, as were all of the subcontractors we worked with. We had such a good experience with Johnny that upon completion of our house, we immediately hired him to do a complete restoration of a 1890's log cabin in town. I guess that speaks volumes about Johnny, the quality of work he does and the enjoyment we had throughout the process." - Nora and Scott Murray.
